About Franka Robotics
Franka Robotics develops force-sensitive robot arms and reference systems for manipulation and physical-AI research. Franka Research 3 provides seven-axis control, joint torque sensing, low-level interfaces and ROS 2 integration for laboratories and developers; Franka Production 3 adapts the platform for industrial automation.
The company is extending the research line with FR3 Duo and mobile dual-arm reference systems for teleoperation, data collection and policy evaluation. Its developer stack includes the Franka Control Interface, libfranka, ROS packages, documentation and open-source LABS workflows. Prototype systems are explicitly research tools and are not approved for production or safety-critical use.
